Well to know our love was dying Weighed heavy on my brain My thoughts and my cares Were stripped and laid bare I beheld her beauty again And it's not for lack of trying Her love left my heart like a shell She cried both our tears And when the morning appeared We had guarded our virtue quite well But I'm gonna stand by you Even when the sun goes down The ground is waiting We'll echo our memories And I stand alone I'm a plain unlucky soldier No better than you I go where I'm swept And no record is kept Since I let go my love so true But I'm gonna stand by you Even when the sun goes down The ground is waiting We'll echo our memories And I stand alone Until mend is yours So hear my sad song Then break down your bottle We'll move along
